That must be the problem. The Catalog object was created in "manage_afterAdd". How do I work around this issue. You will find the traceback below. * Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 98, in publish * Module ZPublisher.mapply, line 88, in mapply * Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 39, in call_object * Module OFS.ObjectManager, line 530, in manage_importObject * Module OFS.ObjectManager, line 551, in _importObjectFromFile * Module OFS.ObjectManager, line 272, in _setObject * Module OFS.ObjectManager, line 280, in manage_afterAdd * Module Products.PRealEstate.PRealEstate, line 95, in manage_afterAdd * Module Products.PRealEstate.PTools, line 25, in setupCatalog * Module Products.ZCatalog.ZCatalog, line 53, in manage_addZCatalog * Module OFS.ObjectManager, line 244, in _setObject * Module OFS.ObjectManager, line 77, in checkValidId Thanks, Mike On Sun, 2003-06-15 at 17:30, Dieter Maurer wrote:

I have exported a section of my site using the zmi export function. When I try to import this site into a fresh installation of zope I get the following error: Error Type:Bad Request Error Value:The id "Catalog" is invalid--it is already in use.
I have double and triple checked and there is not an id "Catalog" anywhere to be found. I then tried importing it in a new folder back onto the machine from which it was exported and get the same message.
What is does this message mean?
I know this problem when objects are created in "manage_afterAdd".
Object creation in "manage_afterAdd" succeeds when the object is created. However, it fails for "copy/import" and potentially for "move" as the object was already created by the "copy". "manage_afterAdd" can not create the object as it is already there.
Looking at the traceback should give you enough information to verify whether this is your problem. In the future, please include the traceback (in addition to the "Error Type", "Error Value").
